Reuse or repair what we do buy.
Recycle what we cannot refuse, reduce, reuse, or repair.
Rot –- compost the rest.

The 5 R’s of waste reduction are:
Refuse to buy harmful products like chemical cleaners and air fresheners.
Reduce to diminish in size, amount, or extent by using less and resisting impulse buying.
Reuse items you already have and replace needing a single-use item with something you can use over and over again.
Repurpose an item you are no longer using and alter it for another practical use.
Recycle all the basics you can such as paper, plastic, metal and glass.

The 5R principle is a guideline aimed at minimizing the generation of waste and reduction of the negative impact on the environment.
It includes five simple steps that each of us can follow in our daily lives to achieve a more sustainable lifestyle.
5R stands for the following words:
Reduce – the first step is to reduce the amount of waste produced.
Reuse – the second step is to choose items that can be reused.
Recycle – the third step is recycling.
Regeneration (Rot/Compost) – the fourth step is regeneration, which is the composting of organic waste.
Educate – last, but not least, is the education and raising awareness in the public about the problem of overconsumption and waste generation.
